Chapter 67: Her Past (1)
[As part of the agreement she previously made with the Records, Kiara is regaining her memory.]
Mikael didn't fully understand but pressed on. "Is she safe?"
[Yes. She is completely safe and will not be in danger during this process.]
Reassured, he calmed down and began piecing things together. 'Regaining her memory? Like a past life?' he wondered before voicing his question to the Records.
[To receive an answer, you must ask Kiara. Providing information would violate the terms of her agreement.]
"What agreement?" Mikael asked, frustrated.
[For further details, you'll need to ask Kiara.]
Realizing he wouldn't get any answers for now, Mikael decided to wait for her to wake up. He adjusted his position, letting her head rest comfortably on his thighs, and began gently caressing her hair.
At the same time all of this was happening on Mikael's side, Kiara had just "woken up." Her eyes opened, and she found herself standing in complete darkness, unable to see anything, not even the floor or ceiling, if they existed. She was confused, as according to the knowledge she had as an AI, this shouldn't be happening during the process Mikael had used to acquire her.
"Congratulations, it's a baby girl!"
Surprised, Kiara turned around and saw a large screen hanging in the void. On the screen, a hospital room was displayed, showing a nurse handing a newborn baby girl to a woman lying in the bed, her expression tired. The woman was of rare beauty, with dark blue hair and light blue eyes, gazing at the baby with a tender, maternal smile.
